Courtside w/ MTP #1: FOCUS

Updated: Aug 19

Dear Coaches,

 

We are thrilled to introduce Courtside with Mental Training Plan, a new monthly resource crafted exclusively for you, in partnership with the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association (IBCA). Our goal is to provide you with practical tools and strategies to elevate your athletes’ mental game and help them perform at their best when it matters most.


This Month’s Resource: Controlling Focus

 

In our first installment, we tackle the essential topic of Controlling Focus. As you know, an athlete’s ability to focus on the right things can make or break their performance. But what do you do when your players are distracted or focusing on the wrong aspects of the game? How can you guide them to refocus on what truly matters?

 

  1. Watch the Interview: Start by watching the first minute of an interview from Victor Oladipo’s first game back from injury against the Chicago Bulls a few years back.

    Watch the Interview - 2 minutes


  2. Dive into the Resource: After watching the video, open the link to this month’s Courtside with Mental Training Plan:

    Open the Courtside Resource - 10 minutes

  3. Use the Worksheet: Feel free to use this worksheet or create your own.

  4. Have a question? If you have any questions you would like addressed in future videos or would like to dive deeper into the topic of focus, feel free to reach out!

    Ask Ben a Question

 

We hope you find this resource valuable and that it helps you intentionally begin to train the mental side of the game with your team! If you want to learn more about our company or how we could help your team, please check out our website: mentaltrainingplan.com  

 

We look forward to your feedback and are excited to continue this journey with you.

 

Best regards,
